Totally dont, but this is just good publicity for bitcoin, it doesnt matter who partners with go, the protocol is still independent.

A truly decentralized entity would not "need" any single person, place, thing, or corporation to validate its existence. I put Google in the "Would be nice to have, but it's not necessary" category as far as Bitcoin is concerned.

But when companies are working together with Bitcoin it will give positive signals to the masses and they may be more inclined to look into it.

This won't affect the price. But it's an interesting step and surely noteworthy. It show how companies take interest in Bitcoin and are starting their own little experiments, so to say. What ever comes of those experiments... only time will tell!

bitcoin doesn't need it but it will help. i think when amazon accepts bitcoin payments it will be much better news.

Bitcoin does not need Google to succeed. Google can accelerate bitcoin acceptance. It is much cheaper for Google to accept bitcoin than selling those Google play prepaid cards. So bitcoin will be useful to Google too.

What can anyone say about this news?

Coinbase and Google Now in Partnership for Special App http://bit.ly/1KjVJMc

Will this make an impact to the current bitcoin price?

I don't think an app can alone impact the price, unless it makes a big difference in the lives of people.
if it will be on google play then a lot more new people will get interested in bitcoin, what could lead to more buys and price change

will provide you with timely updates, like bitcoin price changes,

There are probably tons of apps having the same functionality so not sure how this is going to be any different.
Except maybe for the incoming fund notification functionality to coinbase account.
